For the World

by Shai Hulud· from A Profound Hatred of Man (reissue)

Poured myself out; I am then empty cup. My hope has dies away, and my tolerance has faded. How can I keep stability on such shaky ground? Prayers that a smile will flag me down. Sadly I've learned there's no truth in comfort. Well-being stems not from love. Anguish proves to be my only means of solace yet I want to be held by anyone, with any arms. I spend another morn alone in a world that rejects me. A public unkind, laced with apathy. This one's for the world; I hate you. Life could get no colder. I'm living out a dying cell but I can pull through.
